Widows.


From time immemorial it has been
the custom to consider widows, black
eyed ones especially, as the most mis-
chievous element in community.
Novelists, who are supposed to be per-
feet delineators of character, gener-
ally represent a black-eyed, designing
widow as the disturbing element in an
otherwise smoothly gliding romance !
A female fiend, who, after committing
all manner of unhcard-of atrocities, is
always sure to be ignominiously de-
feated and disgraced at last
Can any one tell me why it is that
widows are so regardedp For must
confess it is problem too intricate
for nv weak brain to solve. A woman
as wife may dwell in a community
for years, and be looked upon as an
insignificant, harmless nonentity? But
should Providence deprive her of her
protector and she be left alone in the
world, then the whole programme
changes, and malevolent eyes are On
the watch, and cruel tongues are
ready to wag! And, although she
NAV dress in the deepest mourning
and wear Grape veil two yards long,
she will not be spared. She may be as
young and beautiful as Holsp et-4proy
or as old and ugly as thnwitch of
Endor. 1t matters not. AS
Casar's wife she was above sus-
picion, but as Cesare widow
it is no harm to watch and criticise
her, as nothing but eril is to be cx-
pected of her now. She has no busi-
ness to be a widow any way 1t
would be better to follow the Hindoo
custom,and burn her on her husbands
funeral pyre. Truly it wbuld be the
more merciful way of disposing of
her. Should necessity COMPEL her to
look after her own business or starve,
then God help her.
She cannot enter bank. or go into
a lawyers or real estate agents Office,
without being made to feel that some
one is thinking her conduct unwoman-
ly and forward. Is it then crime for
a woman 10 be left alone ia the world
Is it her fault that she has neither faith
er, husband or brother to protect her?
What shall she do? Commit suicide?

SHERMAN AND CoLYAR.

If the general reader was not told
that the following is an extract from
Sherman's recent speech before the
Illinois Legislature he would readily
take it for the language of Col. Col
var: "And now, fellow citizens, the
immediate result of Democratic or
Confederate ascendency is to be a
struggle to break down our industrial
system. They now propose to re-
duce the duties on articles that we
can and do now produce, and thus
bring our skilled artisans into COM
petition with foreign labor that will
inevitably reduce the price of domes-
tic labor"
Sherman and Colyar equally advo-
cate the tariff idea Of taking the peO-
pies money to enrich northern man
ufacturers.

Wheeler Counted Out.

He was born in 1918, studied law
and politics and was successfully a
Democrat, Wing and Republican.
He served several terms in Congress
from New York. Was nominated
for Vice-President in 1876 and was
defeated with Hayes but counted in
by John Sherman and the other con-
spirators who stole the Presidency.
He retired from Office and like his
partner in crime has since lived in
obscurity and was entirely forgotten
by the public when his death was
announced.

THE AMERICAN AND DEMOCRACY.

LEBANON, June 2.-To the Ban
ner: The Democracy of this county
are terribly exercised over the sale of
the American to the Colyar crowd.
1t can't see any difference between
this transfer and the transfer of Bob
Taylor to Colyar, 1t can understand
o business transaction which embraces
the Office and its fixtures, but not
one which embraces the transfer of
Democratic subscribers to q Republi-
can. And the assaults on Bob Tay-
Tor by the former editors of the
American sound now a good deal
like the pot calling the kettle black.
But, dictu mirabile, the American
still claims to be Democratic while
advocating protective tariff and the
Blair bill. Is the editor so blinded
by his ambition that he cannot see
that his position on those questions
antagonizes the very fundamental
principles of Democracy? Genuine
Democracy Is based upon grand
ideas, that congress has no power to
collect and appropriate money for
far anything but federal purposes
the expenses of the federal govern
ment economically administered
that every citizen is king and has
equal rights in this great Govern
ment with'all Others, and that the
products of his labor belong to him
and cannot be taken from him for
any purpose but to keep up a good
and efficient Government to protect
him. The issue of the American,
which contains the piteous appeal to
Watterson to recognize it as a DEM
ocratic organ has conclusive argu-
ment in favor of true Democracy.
In reply to Chattanooga paper,
which insists that 10000 Indians
own 100000 acres of land, and that
congress should force the Indians to
sell this land to the whites, says that
the Indians own this land, and that
it would be robbery for the Demo-
cratic party to force the Indians to
sell. Has not congress the same
right to force the Indians to sell as it
has to take my property and give it
to another citizen because he has a
hat or blanket manufactory?n Col,
Colyar is a man Of great ability and
high social standing, but has mo
standing as politician, is not recog-
nized by the Democracy of any coun-
ty in the State us being a Democrat,
and by no one except few mug
wumps; and for him, with his Re
publican ideas, to try to force himself
ON the Democracy as it's great leader
is simply ridiculous and an outrage
on civilization. The sooner that he,
and those who are of his political
views, go to the Republican party
the better twill be for the Demo-
cratic party and the country, for they
do the Democratic party a great deal
more harm than good

WE dislike to say anything in the
way of criticism Of our neighbor the
Democrat, but we have heard his
uncalled for words in regard to the
Irish Orator O'Brien seriously con-
demned by some of his readers. We
felt the injustice of the expression at
the time and we say in all kindness
to our neighbor that such language
needlessly wounds men who justly
feel a laudable pride in the fact that
in their veins flows the blood that
has in all ages prompted the Irish
race to flash resentment back for

Laps McCord's Pulaski Citizen /:
Our amiable and excellent .confrere
Of the GAINESVILLE CHRONICLE is
sorely disappointed that Col. Colyar
doesn't use his paper to tear down
the Democratic party.
To "tear down the Democratic
party' has been the effort of his life,
and there has not been a side issue
or opportunity for creating dissention
of which Col. Colyar has not
avoided himself. Our only regret is
to see McCord following man who
is so vastly his inferior in all the
elements that used to constitute a
Democrat.
